Description

In this first episode of a three part series, I look at the philosophical tool of Reflective Equilibrium. I explain what it is as a process and delve a bit into its history with Nelson Goodman and John Rawls. I also look at it’s structure as a formal embodiment of a way in which we already tend to think. It’s been a while since I released an episode so it’s good to be back. Also the usual trivia and whatnot.

A self-indulgent vanity project of a man with a microphone in hand, each episode explores a philosophical theme hopefully with a certain degree of accuracy. I try to keep it pretty light. More philosophy nerd than academic, it sprung out of free time during the pandemic. @KMaca5
